Ladder Accidents

California Workplace Accident Lawyer

If you or someone you know has been injured in a ladder accident, an attorney at Pacific Attorney Group may be able to help you. Whether this was a workplace accident or if you were using a ladder at home, our attorneys have the legal experience and resources to conduct a complete evaluation and investigation in order to help you resolve the matter. A ladder accident may occur because a company fails to follow standard safety regulations in the workplace, because the ladder was being used improperly, or because the ladder itself was defective.

In any of these cases, there may be one or more party that can be held accountable for the incident. It will take a thorough investigation and work with experts in related fields to get to the bottom of the matter and determine against whom a claim should be filed. If the incident occurred at the workplace, however, you may be able to file a workers’ compensation claim regardless of the cause of the accident, even if you were at fault.

Importance of Hiring a California Workplace Accident Lawyer

The injuries sustained in a ladder accident may vary depending on the particular incident, the height of the ladder and how the victim fell. Some common ladder accident injuries may include: broken bones and fractures, spinal cord injury, head trauma, and brain injury. With an California Workplace Accident Lawyer’s help, you have a far greater chance of recovering the full value of your workers’ compensation claim or personal injury lawsuit as it relates to your ladder accident and injuries. This is crucial, considering you will need all the help you can get in paying for medical bills and living expenses while you are unable to work. If you suffered permanent disability, compensation will be all the more important.
